Which layer has the largest cells in elodea leaf?
The lower epidermis of the elodea leaf has the largest cell.
Why don't you have to stain the elodea leaf cell?
The reason for this is that many cells have organelles that are very hard to see under a microscope, staining these cells allows you to more easily see these organelles. In the case of an Elodea, the invisble organelles is the central vacuole.
Is a Elodea a leaf or a root?
Elodea is a leafy aquatic plant. It is often used in aquariums. it has many leaves and can have roots.
What important compound is found in the chloroplast of a elodea leaf?
The important compound found in the chloroplast of an elodea leaf is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is responsible for absorbing light energy during photosynthesis, which converts that energy into chemical energy that the plant can use to carry out various cellular processes.
Why you use the elodea leaf instead of other tree leaves?
because an oak leaf is too thick to see the cells through a microscope. The light can not go though.
Which layer has the largest cells in elodea leaf?
The lower epidermis of the elodea leaf has the largest cell.
Why do you stain an elodea leaf when observing cells?
because it is already green when you look at it so if you stain it, say with methylene blue, the color will change and you will not be able to recognize some of the structures in the cell like you would without it being stained.
Does the elodea leaf and the onion both have vacuoles?
no

Why don't you need to stain elodea to see it?
Because youre stupid

Why couldn't you use an oak leaf instead of an elodea leaf while on the microscope?
becuase it is to thick
Why do you need to stain the elodea cell?
to see the nucleus and watch the chloroplasts move to the center
What type of organism is an elodea?
Elodea cells are plant cells which are mainly found in aquatic plants which are commonly known as water weeds. They have a cell membrane, mitochondria, nucleus, ribosome and so much more.
Why does osmosis cause elodea leaf cells to shrink?
Due to plasmolysis
What Slide mount is used for viewing an Elodea leaf?
a wet mount
Is it useful to stain the Elodea and Anabaena cells with methylene blue stain?
Yes, because the methylene blue stain makes the organelles in eucharyotic cells visible to us in a basic microscope.
